The ligand binding properties of folate chemotactic receptors on isolated membranes ofDictyostelium discoideumwere analyzed. Three out of the four receptor states (BF, BSand BSS) were detected, showing rate constants andKdvalues similar to those obtained for intact cells. Guanine nucleotides changed the proportioning of the receptor states as well as the rates of several conversions. (i) The transformation of BFinto BSwas inhibited by GDP but not by guanylyl imidodiphosphate (GuaPP[NH]P) or GTP. (ii) The number of BSsites was lowered by GTP and GuaPP[NH]P. (iii) The binding to BSSwas lowered by GTP and GDP, but increased by GuaPP[NH]P. (iv) The rate of disappearance of BSSwas increased by GTP, but not by GuaPP[NH]P. Effects of guanine nucleotides were not observed after treatment of the membrane preparations with 15 mg/ml bovine serum albumin. This treatment caused the detection of a binding type different from the types described previously. The affinity of this binding site was extremely high (Kd≤ 0.2 nM forN10-methylfolic acid), while the dissociation was relatively slow (k−1≤ 3·10−4s−1). It is proposed that bovine serum albumin uncouples the folate receptor from a guanine nucleotide regulatory (G) protein in an irreversible manner. A model is presented in which the four receptor states correspond to distinct interactions with a G protein and GDP or GTP.
